Last week’s discussion on twitter was ‘ No-cook foods for hotter than hell days.’ Vanessa and I started the conversation on what foods we were enjoying on these hot days and also what foods we eat around town that don’t require and oven. The whole conversation had me craving cool no bake cookies, which I made later that day, and light fresh salads, which I’ve been eating a lot of lately. Here are some highlights from our discussion:
Recipes using raw foods:
Maria’s Smashed Chickpea Avocado Sandwiches or Blueberry Corn Salad
Caputo’s recipe for Meat Salad
Raw Zucchini Noodle Salad with Spicy Peanut Sauce
Caprese Salads or this Cherry Tomato Salad by Heather
Watermelon Feta Salad: watermelon, feta, onions, and mint
Summer Squash Ribbon Salad by Heirloom Group
Creminelli Prosciutto with Melon
Vanessa’s Ricotta dessert: ricotta whipped with frangelico topped with peaches, plums and cherries and hazelnuts
Raw Tomato Strawberry Sauce with Ice Cream
Vanessa’s Melon Dessert: Melon, scooped/diced chilled in Moscato d’Asti
